Non-existent physical address error with mmap

I'm trying to mmap a file, and it seems to succeed but when I access it, I get an SIGBUS error. Code:

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
int pid = getpid();
char cmd [1024];
int file;
if (argc != 2) {
    printf("Wrong arguments\n");
    return 1;
}
printf("%s", argv[1]);
int numpages = atoi(argv[1]);
sprintf(cmd, "cat /proc/%d/maps", pid);
system(cmd);
long page_size = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);
file = open(argv[1], O_RDWR, (mode_t)0600);
ftruncate(file, page_size  * numpages);
if(file == -1) {
    perror("file open failed!\n");
    return 1;
}
printf("\n\n mapping file - numpages: %d \n\n", numpages);
printf("mapping %ld KB\n", page_size  * numpages/1024);
int* mapped_file = mmap(0, page_size  * numpages,  PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE, file, 0 );
if (mapped_file == MAP_FAILED) {
    perror("Map failed");
    return 1;
}
printf("mapped file at %p\n\n", mapped_file);
int* current_pos = mapped_file;

system(cmd);

int j;
for (j=0; j<numpages; j++) {
    printf("%d   ", *current_pos);
    current_pos += page_size/4;
}
if (munmap (mapped_file, page_size  * numpages) == -1) {
        perror ("munmap");
        return 1;
}
if (close(file) == -1) {
    perror("close");
    return 1;
}
return 0;
}

Output:

It's confusing me, since you can clearly see in the maps output that the file has been mapped and the address is correct - but it gives an error whenever I try to access it.

EDIT: Valgrind:

Update: So I have stopped it crashing now (thanks :)) with the ftruncate call, but it's printing all zeros:

I think this is because the file is not being read correctly, so all I'm reading is padded zeros. But I'm not sure why that would be

Update, worked it out, it was actually reading the file correctly I was just making a mistake in terms of how to read it. Thanks everyone

The problem is that you open the file with O_TRUNC which truncates it, and since mmap can only map the existing contents of a file it will give you a sigbus. Use truncate() (and friends) to truncate the file to the correct size before mapping it.

From mmap's man page:

   SIGBUS Attempted access to a portion of the buffer that does not correspond to the file (for example, beyond the end of the file, including the case where another process has truncated the file).

---

There's a bug, but it won't explain the crash in mapped_file[0].

sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) gives you the page size in bytes.

At each iteration of current_pos += page_size you're incrementing your pointer by sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)*sizeof(int) so you quickly get outside the mapped region.

Also, the page_size * 4 in mmap looks questionable: surely num_pages ought to come into the equation?
